I'm not sure the idea batteries are stagnating is really accurate, especially since some of the material science advancements that would help hydrogen would also help batteries, especially graphene and fullerenes. Having said that, a quick poke around seems to hydrogen storage isn't as stagnated as I'd thought with metal-organic frameworks becoming potential contenders[0]. Not sure that's enough to save hydrogen from the rest of its pitfalls, but it does make things interesting.

doas is just OpenBSD. You can install doas from ports on NetBSD or FreeBSD, just like you can install doas on Linux.

OpenBSD dropped sudo from the base OS several years ago. sudo just became too complex, tailored to the feature creep demanded and required (PAM, ugh) by Linux users.
The email authenticity was verified via DKIM signature.

I'm not going to break it down point-by-point because you're just shifting the goalposts now. Twitter and FB let plenty of fake and exaggerated stories run wild when they say something negative about Trump. For example, the fake stories about Trump telling people to "Drink/inject bleach", the fake stories about him calling COVID a "hoax", and the fake stories about him calling Nazis "very fine people".

All of those were debunked -- even by left-leaning fact-checkers -- yet none of them were removed or penalized on the social media platforms.
Sorry for the snark :)
Not exactly. An actual packet network, so the connections would be multiplexed just as if you used an IP connection, and routed it at like over a dedicated network. The modem part is an implementation detail.

In terms of cost, it was normal at the time to charge per minute fees for services on the big online services, so enabling remote services multiplexed over a network like that would be an opportunity for BBS operators to federate into a bigger network and gain revenue by charging for services, and start out without having the traffic to justify a fixed line.

But obviously, just like the big online services, that model became unviable the moment the internet went mainstream.

Forget what I find agreeable or not, that is not the point. The point is that this movie, which in all likelihood would have done quite well, was supressed from netflix for political reasons.
This supression will have a huge impact on the film's reach and therefore greatly reduced it's impact. The fact that netflix is now a political agent, with the power to manipulate a giant audience for inscrutable but likely very ugly reasons should worry us all. This is a dangerous state of affairs that should not be reflexively shrugged off just because the wrong tribe complained about it first. This is coming for us all.
It's what you make of it. Most companies make it into a mess. And the UI is slow and bloated like a dead whale.

It is however not that expensive which matters especially when most of the company needs accounts and not just engineers. $7/user/month for basic or $14 for everything you reasonably care about. Gitlab is $19 or $99/user/month.

I would also be quick to point out Plex’S streaming capabilities far outweigh that of Kodi - I have the plex app on my phone, my Samsung TV, and my web browser - all of which connect to a single plex backend running Linux w/ no X11 and work ‘good enough’.

Conversely, Xbmc requires X11, and last I checked (2016) didn’t do a great job at central server for storage and pretty much only ran on Linux/Windows thick client hosts.
Quote from said article:

>The ruling had a major impact on campaign finance, allowing unlimited election spending by corporations and labor unions and fueling the rise of Super PACs. Later rulings by the Roberts Court, including McCutcheon v. FEC (2014), would strike down other campaign finance restrictions.

CU rolled out the red carpet for corporate interests to install their cronies into office, who then worked to further erode any protections against political bribery - which is exactly what Google is doing in this thread.
I see Gitlab's point about all the extra features they have built, but the problem for me is that I just don't need them.

What I do need is a reliable remote git repo, a container registry, a CI system, and about 2500-5000 CI minutes per month. $50 a year for that seemed very reasonable or even a bit too cheap, but $250 is kind of stretching it a bit.

I think the problem here is actually the existence of the free plan. It probably isn't bringing in customers that Gitlab would want, and it is taking up space where an effective starter plan should be. Why not replace it with a slightly beefed up "basic" plan at about $120/year? They could throw in a 3 month trial at the start to ease the barrier of initial sign-up.

You only need a user licenses to log in. Can't you just make the repos public (assuming you are self hosting) so that way anonymous users can still see everything?

Because people want a desktop application experience inside of the browser.

When I was playing a Counter Strike web app example posted here a few months ago, it was endlessly frustrating to have Control and W mapped to actions that you may want to perform simultaneously while also not being able to suppress default behavior. I kept accidentally closing the tab as a result...

I personally think that the ability to override default shortcuts isn't necessarily a bad thing, but I definitely think it should be opt-in, like capturing the mouse cursor is. There should be strict separation between "app" features and what a default website should be able to do. Overriding shortcuts should be one of the "app-only" features imo.

I used trackpoints for years on Toshiba and Lenovo laptops, but had moved away from them until I recently replaced one with a cup-style cap. Holy smokes what a difference. Now on that laptop I find myself jumping from the touchpad to the trackpoint.

So, if you're not so thrilled with pointing sticks as you once were, try a few different styles. Maybe you just have bad caps.
I recently found that DHL, FedEx and UPS no longer offer express delivery services between the US and some Eastern European countries (or perhaps the whole EU) besides highly expensive next day air delivery.

Kind of sad for me, since I used to buy a lot of stuff on various American websites, notably eBay of course, and ship it within a week with DHL or Fedex for a reasonable price.

USPS/national post services are alright, but not the best. They take more time and lose packages more often.

DHL still has express shipping from China. I wonder if this is directly related to the shift in production. Everything comes from China/Asia these days, there's nothing I can't get there, there's no reason to buy from the US anymore.

Which, for the most part, is celebrated. Nearly nobody actually understands what they're doing anymore - I challenge anybody to point to the Javascript in their web app and explain what the purpose of each file is. Just the purpose, just the top level files. I doubt the majority of web devs can (if they could, they'd realize they don't need at least half of them).
On a proper internet connection, you are right, but when that connection is unstable or capped, it's extremely noticeable.
Counter-anecdote: most of the small open-source projects I use only have a small number of active contributors because there is a small number of people who actively try to contribute.

Projects that stop accepting PRs tend to be pronounced "dead" after just a few months, but there isn't always someone able/willing to fork it and keep the project going.

Maybe there are more projects to contribute to than before, so each project gets a smaller % of the "potential contributor" pool.
So then why is the government letting the company reap so much of the benefits of their IP?
There's two sides to this, and his portrayal is a little disingenuous.

To quote the video:

> So if I'm an investor and I'm able to find this information, I might want to buy GameStop because I see that I know they're going to have to convince me to sell my shares.

And unless you have no idea what you're doing, you also know that by buying shares, you reduce the shares available to short sellers, thus increasing the price of the share you bought.

I don't see a way to argue that isn't market manipulation. The value of the shares has nothing to do with the value of the company, it's entirely about manipulating the flow of shares. I don't see a way that this is different from a pump and dump scheme, it just happens in reverse and is entirely unavoidable.

If this isn't market manipulation, shorting stocks is dead. Institutional investors will add checks that scan for stocks that are above 50% shorted and analyze if buying enough stock to push it to 120% or 150% shorted will make them money. They could buy 50,000 shares of a company, sell 25,000 of them at 3x the price, burn the other 25,000, and still come away with a 50% return on investment.

That's why people are calling it manipulation. Shorting stocks was already risky, but adding in a risk that a hedgefund will come in and ruin an otherwise-healthy investment makes them extremely unappealing.

Also a good point. I guess what irks me is that the headline promises something along the lines of what you and the other commenters have said, about failures either being more widespread or about deeper entanglements between the two services, but the article didn't really deliver on that, which is why I appreciate y'all bringing it up.

>All learning amounts to remembering. A machine learning model is basically remembered weights. Everything we've learned is what we remember as solidified in our neurons, etc.

That's "not even wrong", as Pauli would say. Your paragraph suffers from using a shaky non inversible analogy:

Machine learning often uses an analogy for the brain, neurons, activation functions, etc. Some accuracy about the real world is sacrificed in that analogy for the sake of being useful and to have something to reason with and shared taxonomy. We accept that loss for the sake of being productive and for lack of actual equivalents.

What your first paragraph did is use that analogy of the brain used in machine learning, that is shaky to begin with, and use it to reason about the biological brain as if we did not have the actual thing.

In other words, we had a biological brain that we clumsily modeled to get work done in ML, and the paragraph used that model to reason about the brain itself. Similar to how you translate from French --> English --> French and get a different output than the input.

Remembering certainly plays a role in learning, though it is but one component. For it to be what learning is, everything has to be exactly the same with every instance.

To use the analogy, a machine learning model returns predictions/output for instances it has not necessarily seen. Our brain produces outputs based on situations that had not yet happened, at least not in the 'anisotropic time' universe, before that.

What do you think?

I was commenting that it's rare to find someone who thinks open source is important and therefore uses Chromium, not Chrome, but still thinks Google is 'as good a place as any' for passwords and bookmarks. Usually people who care about open source are big on privacy also.

I don't understand the choice, and I guess that shines through. To me almost anything is better than Google for privacy, but it wasn't meant as criticism.
They found jQuery is correlated with longer times to interactivity. It doesn't necessarily cause it.

The latest jQuery is 85 KB (~30 KB gzipped), and doesn't do anything time consuming on load. My guess is the types of sites that don't use jQuery happen to be the types of sites that are faster.

It isn't that it is hard to set this up. The question is what value is there to setting this up? Especially the way that HIV/AIDS was originally and to a certain extent still is stigmatized. Many people have had friends or family die of AIDS and still refuse to acknowledge that was the reason for their death.

The end result is that not only is this type of project more valuable for a new and rapidly spreading disease like COVID, the bar that the value needs to clear to justify this system is also higher because an HIV/AIDS status is considered more private from a societal standpoint (not necessarily a legal one).
What gets me is their servers have to be up in order for your Plex server to work, even locally within your own Network (or on the device hosting the server).

It happens occasionally that their servers go down and nobody is able to stream anything. I don't know why their servers are a dependancy in that chain at all, I probably looked it up before but I don't recall it being a good reason.

If anything, security researchers should not be "most people". They should know better than to let sites execute untrusted code.

Of course, I believe Google is complicit in this somewhat, since its own intrusive tracking needs JS, and so it encourages everyone to make sites that require it and users to leave it on by default.
This is a terrible analogy. Nobody forced you to go to the website that voluntarily decided to include the trackers.
Not nearly as nifty as this, but it reminded me that in college my alarm clock was cron job on my desktop that would launch a program every day at 8am which beeped the system bell once a second until I leapt out of bed and hit Enter.

Making that sound stop was a great motivator for getting out of bed.
The way mine is configured allows me to get to top sites in 3 taps if I'm already looking at a site.

You can disable "Scroll to hide toolbar" in Customize to remove step 1. Steps 2 and 3 are still required but moving the address bar to the bottom keeps your taps closer together (The plus actually ends up right over the boxed number so you can double tap pretty quickly). You can also get rid of step 4 by disabling "Show search engines" in search settings. Now when you tap (+) the address/search bar will still be focused but the top sites are still accessible.
I had been holding out on updating from the old version of Firefox for Android(yes I know, security issues), but some of my favorite add-ons weren't supported yet. The other day my add-ons stopped working right(I think they updated on their own within the browser), so I finally decided to make the jump, and so far its been horrible. So laggy and not intuitive.
We migrated away from Jira to YouTrack, which is quite flexible. Speed wise it's not too bad, could be snappier. But it is really flexible with full APIs. Jetbrains also has "Spaces" which is more simplified but has other toys.
In my experience, bureaucracy is mostly uncorrelated with the willingness of a project to accept a PR from a new contributor.

Homebrew has very strict contribution requirements but has a huge number of contributors and is generally easy to contribute to. Meanwhile there are lots of little projects that go dead for lack of interest by the sole maintainer in reviewing and merging patches.

Also this:

Since then there has sprung up a fetish for bureaucratic process, and tooling has arisen to foster that, such that the barrier to entry is significantly higher now than it was in the 90s. All you needed was a text editor and an email account. Now you need accounts on whatever code forge is involved, and you didn't write enough unit tests, and you failed to properly format your pull request, and what do you mean you're not an expert in whatever version control we've adopted? This pull request sat in an open state because you didn't tag it appropriately. The CI system was updated and your code wasn't covered in the automated integration test, please resubmit after making minor punctuation changes in a metadata file.

Doesn't really make sense to me. How many projects have you actually had this problem with?

I don't think the author is right about things having been harder in the old days led to a higher proportion of the internet being qualified to contribute. I think it's much harder now to patch software upstream than it ever has been.

For some people, using Git and Github is a barrier to entry. For others, submitting a patch to a mailing list is a barrier to entry.
Yep, I do. I used this kind of screen in another project, but it took years to burn in (and that one was completely static). The screen only costs $3-4 or so, so I can just replace it if it becomes an issue, but you are quite correct that it's going to be a problem.
